Florida is known for its lightning strikes and when they hit the water it's amazing. The rain here never falls softly but explodes from the rain clouds in great drenching sheets. The storms pass quickly though, so you have to be ready with a cup of tea and a place on the porch swing to enjoy them.BaysideLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08937652959870332684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-36352400538294305732012-04-14T19:50:46.660-07:002012-04-14T19:50:46.660-07:00I like your words, "feral storm".
